I think I'll delete the behavior part of the letter and skip down to the list of things I would like for Christmas. This list is pretty simple due to the fact that I'm growing up and I desire more fascinating apartuses to capture my attentim. But if you see anything fit don't hesitate to leave it. First of all I would like a real set of drums. Last year ya brought me a beginner set and due to the force applied too them they didn't last very long. I would also like a couple of remote control cars or trucks and anything associated with wrestling. I'm a big wrestling fan. Monday night Nitro, Smackdown, WCW, WWF, I like it all! Of course, there's several more things on my list but to make it short, I think I'll come to a close. Don't forget everyone especially Lil Sister, we have a problem sharing. There will be something left for ya by the fireplace. Your #1 fan, Tyler Hunter Dear Santa, My name is Kayla Chantelle Hunter and I am six years old and in the first grade at Gurdon Primary. I think I have been a pretty good girl this year therefore, here's a few things I would like you to bring me for Christmas. I would like a easy-bake oven, an Amazing Alley doll, a life-sized Barbie, a keyboard, computer, more games for my Playstation, trampoline, and roller skates. Of course this list seems a tad bit short by believe me there's a lot more things I want and I'll leave it up to you to get me what you think I may want. Please don't forget Mom, Dad, Grandma and Grandpa. All Aunts, Uncles, and cousins and my favorite teacher Mrs. Griffin. Love, Kayla Hunter P.S. There will be snacks left by the fireplace at Granny's. Dear Santa, I am a little girl ten months old and all my family thinks that I am very sweet. The only thing that interest me about Christmas this year are the white balls on the Christmas tree. I keep pulling them off. I don't have a Christmas list this year just bring me a baby doll and some toys that makes a noise, but my two big brothers sure do. Kody wants anything to do with Pokemon and Brandon wants clothes (Adidas, Nike, and Old Navy) you know stuff like that. Bring mommy and daddy something nice and don't forget all my cousins; Toby, Stephanie, Tyler, and Buck, they love me very much. Especially remember my Grandma Judy, she has been real sick and in the hospital. My best Christmas gift would be for her to get well and back to her normal self. Your new little pal, Peyton Layne Bradshaw P.S. Also remember my Aunt Bunny who keeps me a lot. Search | Nevada County Picayune by date | Gurdon Times by date |
